As the title suggests. Only songs that made the top 40 in either the sales or official chart will count towards this list. As ever, the sales chart gets more irrelevant by the week but for now this comparison thread will continue.

Notes: A song colour-coded in green indicates that the song made the top 40 on sales, but missed it officially A song colour-coded in pink indicates that the song missed the top 40 on sales, but made it officially starred out of the official chart due to artist cap rules

Westlife for now overtake Fire Tones to get the record for highest sales position for a song missing the official top 100, but it will almost certainly reach the top 100 next week.Tom Jones re-enters the sales chart at #21 with 'I'll Never Fall In Love Again', which misses this week's official top 100, though it keeps its official #2 peak from 1967.
